Sincerely Louis C.K. (2020 TV Special)
10/10
Independently Released, Briliant, Hilarious, Awfully Uncomfortable
6 April 2020
He hasn't missed a step, and he's just as funny and twice as uncomfortable as he ever was.

Without any studio backing, no advertising (at least none that I saw), and the whole internet pretending that his career is over, this guy releases an hour of gut-busting and cringe-inducing commentary and laments destroying any competition or doubts about his abilities.

I love/hate the way he digs into the most awkward and embarrassing stuff. But it's actually comforting to have people who can simply talk straight about how hard and absurd life is, without striving to project some idealized version of what a Successful Good Human they are. He even wore a stained shirt for his "comeback" as he dug up his worst demons for everybody to laugh at.

His perversity is an act of kindness for the wretched creatures of the earth. Like when he talks about how not all disabled people are Special Olympians, some of them just wish they had legs, and that's okay. You can just relax. Life is hard.

And he just sells this on his website. It's not a netflix special, there was no fanfare, no nonsense, just an hour of laughter. And it's really good.
